Congratulations on your new car! The LATCH system in the rear seats allows you to easily install a car seat in a
Toyota Highlander
.
Here’s how you use it:
  1. Use the recline lever to tilt the rear seatback to a level position. Set it at a position that allows the car seat to fit on the seat with ample space.
  2. Remove the headrest if needed for extra space while installing the seat.
  3. Locate the LATCH system anchors between the seat cushion and seatback.
  4. Loop the hooks on the car seat to the anchors of the LATCH system.
  5. Loop the remaining hook to the upper LATCH anchor located on the back of the seat if needed.
Just like that, you’ve securely installed a car seat in your Toyota Highlander! ​​Since you just spent money on a new car, spare a minute to review your car insurance. You may be surprised at how much you’re overpaying for your current policy.
